For example, for me, the Harry Potter movies are good movies but they will never come close to the books.

I know Twilight and etc. are considered teen books but I don't want the movies to be teen movies.

Yes but I'd rather tham make the movie & it come out bad than having them not make it at all... But that's just my opinion

Me too

Every time I read a book, I want the book to turn into a movie and while the movie never come close to the book, it is always nice to have the movie.

I love the icons

They are so funny.

From Stephenie's website about the movie...

Quote:

With the Twilight movie in pre-production, there have been a lot of rumors floating around in regards to a script, casting information and shooting locations. There will not be an open casting call for the movie (please note, Stephenie is not responsible for casting the movie) — all auditions are being held within the Screen Actors Guild. We are working closely with Summit Entertainment to ensure that Stephenie’s website will have the most up-to-date and accurate movie information. Please check out stepheniemeyer.com and thetwilightsaga.com for regular updates.

I'm probably the only person who feels this way, but I'm totally against the movie idea...it's just....not going to be good. I don't know, I have such a strong image of how everything should be in my head and there is just not way the movie is going to hold that up.

You are definitely not the only person who feels that way. This movie scares me more than I can say...there are so many things they're bound to ruin.

I love visiting imdb at the moment and read the twilight board because it is nice to read all the casting ideas by the fans. I am trying to come up with my dream cast also but the hardest for me is really Jacob. I also believe that the actors/actresses should be old enough to generate the kind of chemistry the romance of the book has but at the same time they have to be able to play 17 years old which shouldn't be hard in some way because all the teen shows on the air now are done with "older" actors/actresses.

I know the movie will not be has good at the book but I will keep an open mind and try to enjoy for what it is.

McAwesome · 10-29-2007, 06:42 AM

Regardless we all should hope for the best.

My fingers and toes are most definitely crossed.
